@SheaSerrano Is an underrated, liked and feared player who moves like a guard and whose game touches the heavens. The Kareem / K.D. comparisons will appear in my upcoming K.D. book (slated for Oct., that's right, Oct., ha.)... 3/3

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@SheaSerrano has the most unstoppable shot in the pros (skyhook / pull-up)... went from a mid-west market to Cali... all-time points record holder / best chance of catching Kareem with current efficiency... 2/3

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@SheaSerrano Great "70 (more) Q's about K.D." column... And I thought he was chasing LeBron but 18 months ago I realised Durant is actually chasing / mirroring Kareem (upgraded from Oscar to Magic / Russ to Steph)... 1/3

@SeanFennessey But maybe the best film from the decade will be foreign film or a documentary... Maybe Ezra Edelman's "O.J.: Made In America" is actually the best work since 2010.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@SeanFennessey @ringer Don't sleep on The Big Short as the film of the decade. That movie has it all (and matches The Social Network on every level except the Reznor / Ross score). Pick a box, The Big Short ticks it. #TheRewatchables

I want to see the #NBA have a true retro night... or better yet, next season, can they please have 80s week. All uniforms must be as they were in the 1980s. Home teams in white. 80s arena music, etc..

@LeighEllis @treykerby @jeskeets Let me know if you would like one for the #NBAStarters set (or your man cave)... https://t.co/IXl2GRfJ0n

@whatsupmarki Trust me, you're not missing much, it's insultingly bad... and i'm yet to see Homecoming but do let me know if it's any good.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

On behalf of the studio who asked you to pay money for #AlienCovenant, sorry.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

My new website is now live: https://t.co/eSk4cRFWYA -- plenty of #NBA inspired content / creative on there for all to enjoy.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

Why don't more people talk about the #NBADraft like they're casting for a movie? Cast a specific role while assembling a delicate ensemble.

A few photos from my recent freelance gig at the #TEDxSydney talks. It was an incredible day... https://t.co/spPYkNNx9e

@davej2345 @KDTrey5 Yeah not the same, for a number of reasons, but equally sweet for KD... and if they threepeat is it still a jumpship quick ring?

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@whatsupmarki @JinnoRufino @NotBillWalton @djmotwister @FullCourtReport Pop would just make / let LeBron run point and then enjoy a glass of wine with him after the game. They'd get the best out of each other.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@whatsupmarki @NotBillWalton @djmotwister @JinnoRufino @FullCourtReport @kawhileonard If he gets more help, he might be the only one who can prevent a G.S. three-peat.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@davej2345 @KDTrey5 Just because you know the ending or the story takes a turn you didn't expect (or like) doesn't mean it isn't a fairytale (in my opinion).

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@whatsupmarki @NotBillWalton @russwest44 @djmotwister @JinnoRufino @FullCourtReport Steph shouldn't have been the first / only one... but it depends on someone's command over the season. I think we'll see another one.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

Couldn't agree more with the @nytimes' movie critics for their pick of the best film of the 21st Century (so far) -- https://t.co/Bs0YfBvO17

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

@davej2345 @KDTrey5 If Curry had carried him to a title, fine, criticise KD but he showed his worth / talent and I believe the marriage was mutually beneficial.

[The Backpack Baller @BackpackBaller]

That was some season / Playoffs / soul destroying display / revenge tale by the @warriors, right @Rusty_SFChron?
